Is there any way to delete attachments in multiple emails at once in Outlook
2007? I have over 3000 emails with attachments in my archive folder and I
need to delete them because I am over my 2GB allowed space on the shared
drive. The attachments have already been save in other folders in the shared
drive. The attachments amount to 844MB. If I have to do it one by one, it
will take forever.

Help!

You'll need to use a utility or VBA.
See http://www.outlook-tips.net/code/saveatt.htm for code samples, and
http://www.slipstick.com/AddIns/housekeeping.asp for utilities that can
remove them.

As an alternative you can try Attachments Processor for Outlook
http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/attachments_processor/

After the file is saved on your shared folder, the attachment can be removed
from the message, replaced by a shortcut to the saved file. So you will be
able to open those files from Outlook messages as you ususal do.
